HLA-haploidentical TCRαβ+/CD19+-depleted stem cell transplantation in children and young adults with Fanconi anemia.

ABSTRACT: We report on the outcome of 24 patients with Fanconi anemia (FA) lacking an HLA matched related or unrelated donor, given an HLA-haploidentical T-cell receptor αβ (TCRαβ+) and CD19+ cell-depleted hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in the context of a prospective, single-center phase 2 trial. Sustained primary engraftment was achieved in 22 (91.6%) of 24 patients, with median time to neutrophil recovery of 12 days (range, 9-15 days) and platelet recovery of 10 days (range, 7-14 days). Cumulative incidences of grade 1 to 2 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and chronic GVHD were 17.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.5%-35.5%) and 5.5% (95% CI, 0.8%-33.4%), respectively. The conditioning regimen, which included fludarabine, low-dose cyclophosphamide and, in most patients, sin
